The role of the Leishmania mexicana amastigote flagellum in parasite-host interactions
- Abstract:
-
Cilia and flagella are important organelles with roles in motility and signalling across eukaryotes. Leishmania species possess both a motile 9+2 flagellum and an immotile 9+0 flagellum in different lifecycle stages. While several roles have been defined for the motile promastigote flagellum, the importance of the amastigote flagellum has long eluded understanding, but recent evidence suggests a potential role for this organelle in parasite-host interactions.
